Aish in Madhur’s next

Heroine, the forthcoming film directed by Madhur Bhandarkar is somewhat based on the life of the Hollywood stunner Marilyn Monroe. The film’s script was written keeping Kareena Kapoor in mind. But the glam diva had certain issues regarding the character in the flick and did not sign on the dotted line.


A upset Madhur Bhandarkar earlier left with no other option had to shelve out the film. But now, the venture has been revitalized and its producers UTV were interested to rope in Aishwarya Rai. However, as another choice, Katrina Kaif was also under consideration. Heroinetells the story of a talented actress who becomes the victim of her own success. It’s an powerful role and both Aishwarya and Katrina fit the bill. But as the rule says only one can become the winner and this time the winner of the war of Salman Khan's former girlfriends to play Madhur Bhandarkar's Heroine, is none other than one of the most sought out Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. It was a great matter of concern as to who would play the life of a heroine who has passed her most important part in her career but refuses to believe that she is no longer in the limelight, Madhur Bhandarkar finally roped in Aishwarya.

Madhur has already met Aishwarya Rai along with his producer Siddharth Roy Kapoor. The actress, it seems that, loved the subject and gave her nod. After canning his much talked-about movie “Heroine” for lack for a appropriate actress, director first revived that the movie wanted either Aishwarya Rai or Barbie doll Katrina Kaif to play the lead role. After Aishwarya starrer Action Replayy and Guzaarish followed the debacle at the box office, we wish that this time Heroine would pay off Heroine’s hard work. Till than wait to see what will happen next ?

Women lead box office race

For the longest time, women, exclusive of a few honorable exceptions, have been considered nothing more than necessary accessory to the male in Bollywood industry. Even a actress like Aishwarya Rai been unable to gather a decent box-office opening on her own. But it seems like the new era has begun on a different note. In the supposedly hapless month of January, Rani Mukherjee and Vidya Balan starrer ‘No One Killed Jessica, did well at the box-office.

On an important note, the movie got an opening response from audiences, signifying that viewers are no longer disinclined to female centrality. Closely related to the matter came Dhobi Ghat directed by Aamir Khan’s wife Kiran Rao. The movie, had Aamir's presence, but it was sold as a Kiran Rao flick. The movie created box-office business unimaginable for a movie of this type and has brought art house cinema in fashion once again.

Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar stated that at last the parable that only women-oriented movies made by him succeed has been devastated. He further added that it's really great to see more and more women-centric movies working these days. As it directly proves that actresses have at least begun to get their draw at the box-office.

Tanu Weds Manu, which collected Rs 24 crore in the first ten days even with the World Cup matches, is plans to come up as one of the biggest hits of 2011. Kangana Ranaut and R Madhavan starrer was sold on the character that Kangana played, and the beautiful lass was at the front position. Yeh Saali Zindagi, revolved around the character of Chitrangada Singh, grossed decent reviews at the box-office, and collected Rs 11 crore collection net.

The success of such movies has already prompted producers to invest more and more on films like this. There's R Balki's production in which veteran actress Sridevi will be portraying the character of a housewife who sets out to find her identity in the male dominating society. And Balaji Telefilms is making a film on the life of Silk Smitha, featuring Vidya Balan in the lead role.

Deepika Padukone, who is going to flaunt in an item number in Rohan Sippy's upcoming film Dum Maaro Dum, was the only actresss seen on the teaser poster though the film features Abhishek Bachchan, Pratiek Babbar and Bipasha Basu. Well! One can say that women have begun to won the race.
